David Hess: The Road Leads To Nowhere(lyrics)

wheels turnin'
some of the leaves are turnin' brown
comin' to gather you
gatherin' cherries off'a the ground...

a little while older
a little bit closer to the spring

top of your mind
is what the nakedness of neon color
smokey sound can bring

and the road leads to nowhere

life's rollin'
thunder's gonna roll all in your smile
cross tomorrow,
cross tomorrow,
wait to find the crook in your.... style

after the rainbow,
after the day glows over you
bottle of wine
and then a waterfall
gonna lead you to the dream(green? cream?)
I knew you'd do

and the road leads to nowhere
and the castle stays the same
and the mother tells the father
wait for the rain

where the road leads,
I just don't know...
where the road leads,
where the road is,
I just don't know....

arms twisting
reach around and twist inside your skin
filthy hours
fantasizing what you want to begin

after its finished
after the song and dancin's done
wake up to the new contentment
of the way you fought
to win the war you want
